I'm not a huge sports fan. I honestly think basketball is kind of dumb, and can tolerate baseball only with a cold beer and a big hat. I'm more of a pilates kind of girl. but tennis...I love. it's all about one person and what they bring onto the court that day. two years ago, brian and I went back to london (have I mentioned I love london?) for a week, and camped overnight to get center court seats at wimbledon. let me tell you, sitting 8 rows behind roger federer for practically no money was a pretty awesome experience, and seeing the master so close just makes you more aware of what a personal struggle it is for the players.
we've been to the u.s. open a couple times now, and it's a great setup because it's really easy to stalk the players on the practice courts (notice the hasty photos of roddick & murray below). I think in the next year or two we'll hit the french open as well...but the big dream is australia. the day you see a blog post about our trip to australia for the open and to scuba dive the great barrier reef, you will know one of my lifelong dreams has come true :)
